The federal government has flagged off a probe of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and other revenue generating agencies for remitting dollar revenues in naira into government coffers.

Cross River state governor, Ben Ayade, gave the hint while briefing newsmen alongside his Sokoto,Taraba and Ondo counterparts after the monthly National Economic Council (NEC) meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Thursday, October 15.
Ayade said the NEC presided over by vice president Yemi Osinbajo was briefed by the Central Bank Governor, Godwin Emiefele on the disturbing development.
“A brief report on the FGN agencies remitting dollar revenues in naira into the Federation Account was also given by the CBN governor.
" Investigations are on-going. Such agencies include but not limited to NNPC, NIMASA and NPA," the governor said.
